Well I know there probably has been a thread about Duffy the Bear before, but to be honest I never really took any notice until my DD has found out about it.

Both of the little people are Build a Bear mad, especially Meg who takes a seperate suitcase on hols just for the bear.

Can anyone tell me where abouts you can buy him, is he in all the parks?

As we are going out just 2 days after Gethin's birthday and 10 days after Megs, I have said I may buy them one as a present as they won't be getting anything actually on their birthday due to the trip. (Well of course they will get some little bits and pieces, but they don't know that). I don't want to get there and find that they are priced over the top. A friend, who mentioned Duffy to Meg, said they paid around $60 is that right or can you get cheaper? I can't say I want to spend $60 each on a bear.

There is a large outlet for Duffy at the entrance to World Showcase.
I also saw them for sale at the large Disney store at DTD a couple of weeks ago.
They may also have been on sale elsewhere but I never noticed.

Just checked with the online store and it at least gave me an indicator or how much they are. I see the 17" is around $25 so that is a bit cheaper than the $60 my friend paid, but she obviously went for the bigger version.

They've both got Cabin Max hand luggage for kids which has a seat for their teddy bears. I can see Duffy Bear will be having pride of place on the way home.

We bought two Duffys back before he was anything other than, "Mickey's Bear." We paid $5 each for them at the CMs only shop.

Can't say as I see what the fuss is, but the ones we have are quite soft...

The outlet stores (Disney outlets) are quite reliable. Just watch your prices, as they aren't always discounted. Merchandise there is usually that which didn't sell, or is outdated with a preprinted date.
